Summary
Urs Bulling is a software engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in high-performance scientific computing and algorithm development for strongly correlated electron systems. He developed and productionized quantum cluster and quantum Monte Carlo algorithms during a PhD at ETH Zürich and implemented them for top supercomputers such as Summit, Titan and Piz Daint. At Citadel Securities he applies that performance-focused engineering background to industry-scale software problems, combining rigorous numerical methods with modern development practices like CI and test-driven development. Urs maintains and contributed to the high-performance research code DCA++, bridging research-grade simulation software and production-quality engineering. Based in Miami, he pairs deep physics expertise with practical experience in teaching, consulting, and large-scale HPC deployments—an unusual blend that lets him translate cutting-edge algorithms into robust, scalable code.
